    Indoor air such as house, shopping complex, hospital, university, office and hotel should be monitor for human safety and wellbeing. These closed areas are prone to harmful air pollutants i.e. allergens, smoke, mold, particles radon and hazardous gas. Laboratories in university are special room in which workers (student, technician, teaching/research assistants, researcher and lecturer) conduct their works and experiment. The activities and the environment will generate specific air pollutant which concentration depending to their parameters. Anyone in the environment that exposure to these pollutants may affect safety and health issue. This paper proposes a study of development of a cloud-based electronic nose system for university laboratories air monitoring. The system consists of DSP33-based electronic nose (e-nose) as nodes which measure main indoor air pollutant along with two thermal comfort variables, temperature and relative humidity. The e-noses are placed at five different laboratories for acquiring data in real time. The data will be sent to a web server and the cloud-based system will process, analyse using Neuro-Fuzzy classifier and display on a website in real time. The system will monitor the laboratories air pollutants and thermal comfort by predict the pollutant concentration and dispersion in the area i.e. Air Pollution Index (API). In case of air hazard safety (e.g., gas spills detection and pollution monitoring), the system will alert the security by activate an alarm and through e-mail. The website will display the API of the area in real-time. Results show that the system performance is good and can be used to monitor the air pollutant in the university laboratories.

    Water quality is an important parameter for the health and growth of aquatic species in aquaculture farming system. The threshold values of the water main parameters should be monitored continuously. Contaminated aquaculture water will affect the health, growth and ability of animals to survive. In addition, it will also affect the harvesting yields based on the number and size of the animals. To overcome this problem, the main water parameters, namely temperature, pH, Dissolved Oxygen and Electrical Conductivity are monitored in real-time using a multi-sensory system and the internet of things. Data is acquired by a developed instrument and transmitted wirelessly via a GPRS/GSM module to a web server database. The data obtained are analyzed and monitored through the website and in real-time. Therefore, corrective action could be taken immediately for contaminated water, indicated by water parameters out of range. The system also provides an early signal to farmers based on a specific range of water quality parameters values. This will help farmers make adjustments to ensure appropriate water quality for the aquaculture system.
